The Wayward Daughter is one of the oldest ballet of the world.
It was presented first on the eve of the French Revolution in Bordeaux by the Jean Dauberval ensemble.
Since then the musical material has been changed several times, while in 1960 Sir Frederick Ashton (1904-1988) created his own version.
Sir Frederick Ashton’s name is inseparable from the first fourty years of British ballet.
He is a defining figure of the English dance.He retired as the director of the Royal Ballet after creating dozens of masterpieces.
In his works the main roles went for the beauty, musicality, a sense of humour.
The Wayward Daughter is a comic ballet too.
